Steelers WR Dionate Johnson (hamstring): He'll play after bye

PITTSBURGH -- Wide receiver Diontae Johnson was emphatic that he would play in the Week 7 game against the Los Angeles Rams when the Pittsburgh Steelers return from their bye.

"Hell yeah, I'm coming back," Johnson said. "I've been working my behind off these last three, four weeks. Today was one of those days to see how far I've come along. Everything looked great out there to them. I feel completely great and healthy. I would say I'm ready for Monday when we come back to start getting back to work."

Johnson has been on injured reserve since sustaining a hamstring injury in the Week 1 loss to the San Francisco 49ers.
